New hope for kids with leukemia: study compares treatment success

NCT ID NCT03165851

Summary

This study looked back at two different treatment programs for children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a serious blood cancer. Researchers compared outcomes from 320 children treated between 2009-2015 with a newer, more intensive chemotherapy approach to those treated with an older method. The goal was to see if the newer strategy led to better survival and longer periods without the cancer returning.
